As our kids get old enough to start asking for a pet of their own, it’s tough to make them understand the responsibilities of having a pet - feeding them, playing with them, and cleaning up after them. Pets are wonderful, but they’re a lot of work too. From scooping the poop to paying the vet bills, caring for a pet is no small undertaking.
Tell us about your pets - the ones you had as a child, and the ones you have now. Are you a cat person or a dog person? How about birds, fish, or hamsters? Any exotic pets in the family? Or are you pet-free and loving it?
This week, we’re helping Burger King get the word out about their latest line of Club BK toys - iDogs! These iDog toys light up and come with a costume and sticker sheet, but they’ll only be at Burger King through November 2. They don’t bite, don’t shed, and don’t need to be walked. Sounds like the perfect starter pet to us!
Here’s how to participate:
Write a post on your blog telling tales about your pets. Post anytime this weekend - Today, October 24 to Sunday, October 26 and include links to http://www.clubbk.com and http://blog.parentbloggers.com.
Also, please include the following blurb:
“This post was written for Parent Bloggers Network as part of a sweepstakes sponsored by Burger King Corp.”
Make sure to send your blog post link to parentbloggers@gmail.com and we’ll round them up right here - so give your post a creative title!
What can you win?
A $250 VISA gift card - to pamper your pets, or perhaps to start your family on the road to pet ownership! One lucky winner will be selected at random.
